Top 10 Snapdragon 855 Smartphones

The best choice for a person who is a collector at heart. Even after the end of use, the device should find a place on some shelf, because it is the first attempt by the South Korean company to make a smartphone with a screen that bends in half. And the pancake did not come out lumpy. The top-end Qualcomm processor made it possible to realize decent power, thanks to which any games can be easily launched here. A large screen can be used to simultaneously work in two or even three applications. The camera, supplemented by an optical stabilizer and the ability to shoot video in 4K resolution at 60 frames / s, is also obliged to please the buyer. However, you can also find fault with a smartphone. It turned out to be too heavy, and its batteries with a total capacity of 4380 mAh do not charge as quickly as we would like.

This device with the flagship chip from Qualcomm on board entered our list not only because of this fact. The device stands out from the competition and low price, and an abundance of wireless modules, and the presence of both of the most popular connectors. This means that the device will not force you to look for a Bluetooth headset, you can also connect standard wired headphones to it. And at one time it was one of the most inexpensive smartphones among those that can boast a fingerprint scanner built into the display. By the way, for the manufacture of the screen used AMOLED technology, indicating perfect color reproduction. You can complain about the LCD panel only because of the standard refresh rate - it was on this parameter that the Chinese decided to save money. And they didn't even bother with waterproofing.

Any mobile processor with a long game starts to heat up very much. Especially if it's a top-end chipset, the cores of which are capable of running at high clock speeds. The Snapdragon 855 is just that.So that the owner of the smartphone does not burn his hands, manufacturers go to all sorts of tricks. For example, the creators of ZTE Nubia Red Magic 3 introduced an active cooling system. At the same time, the fan is almost inaudible - the speed of rotation of its blades varies depending on the current load. And this model also received a memorable design of the back panel, complemented by an LED strip. There is also a single lens of the main camera, hiding under a 48-megapixel 1/2-inch matrix. And since the smartphone cannot be called a record-breaking thin, one of its ends quietly found a place for a 3.5 mm audio jack.

The composition of this smartphone included an excellent camera, consisting of three modules. The main one turned out to be very fast, as evidenced by the f / 1.6 aperture. The manufacturer has also become generous with optical image stabilization. We can only complain about the lack of a scene depth sensor, which is why the camera is not able to blur the background. If we talk about other components, then not everyone will like the lateral location of the fingerprint scanner.But the device is ready to boast a waterproof case. Wi-Fi 802.11ac and LTE modules are used here to access the Internet. And it is assumed that you have Bluetooth headphones, since this smartphone does not have a separate audio jack. However, the device itself sounds good – the stereo speakers here are supplemented with support for Dolby Atmos.

This smartphone belongs to the already forgotten slider form factor. This means that it consists of two parts - front and back. These two halves are easily shifted with your thumb, resulting in a conversational speaker and a dual front camera appear above the screen. It is a pity that such a design cannot be called reliable - dropping the device is not recommended. Other features of the device stand out 256 GB of permanent memory. At the same time, the manufacturer has become generous with the microSD card slot. It seems that he would have been better off equipping his product with a 3.5mm audio jack instead. As for the battery, its capacity turned out to be very small. This is due to the fact that it had to be placed in the thin lower half of the smartphone.

Must be the last mainstream smartphone from Google. This model has not only a powerful processor, but also full-fledged moisture protection according to the IP68 standard. Also, a rare buyer will complain about the camera, which is able to blur the background almost perfectly. And it’s hard to find fault with the quality of 4K video shooting, because it uses optical stabilization in its course. Other features of the device include a polymer OLED screen. This means that the probability of breaking it is extremely small. Unfortunately, the device received a number of shortcomings. For example, they use a very modest battery, the capacity of which does not exceed 2800 mAh. Not everyone will be satisfied with the front camera, which lacks stars from the sky. And the American manufacturer also abandoned the 3.5 mm audio jack.

Snapdragon 855 is far from the main advantage of this model. Many buyers praise the device much more for its 20-megapixel front camera. If you turn the device over, then three lenses appear. All of them have different focal lengths, so you can use the optical zoom. The picture here is displayed on an AMOLED display with high energy efficiency and deep blacks. At its bottom is a fingerprint scanner. And the device received a solid amount of memory, albeit not a record one. You can scold the manufacturer only for the rejection of the 3.5 mm audio jack and not the fastest battery charging. Yes, and the battery capacity could be more than the 4000 mAh declared here.

Our list cannot do without a top-end smartphone from the South Korean company Samsung. This device comes with a smart stylus, which will spend most of the time in a dedicated slot. However, the device has other advantages. For example, its AMOLED screen received an increased resolution. The rear camera has optical stabilization and 2x zoom. And a large amount of memory allows you not to think about buying a microSD card, although a slot for it is also present here. The moisture protection implemented according to the IP68 standard should also please. Not everyone will like the lack of a 3.5mm audio jack. And the South Koreans put the Snapdragon 655 only in the version of the smartphone intended for overseas sales.

This device based on Snapdragon 855 was created exclusively for gamers. They will appreciate its defiant rear panel design. Also, they are waiting for the sensor polling rate increased to 240 Hz, thanks to which the game reacts with lightning speed to finger movements.The only pity is that the picture is updated standard 60 times per second. But the screen produces almost perfect colors. Otherwise, the device might not be included in our list. By the way, the display also has a fingerprint sensor. The Chinese manufacturer saved money exclusively on a 3.5 mm audio jack and moisture protection - all this is not here.

This device received an AMOLED display with deep blacks and high energy efficiency. In games and menus of the operating system, it feels good that the refresh rate has been increased to 90 Hz. And also noteworthy is the complete absence of a cutout in the upper part of the screen, in which the front-facing lens is usually placed. Someone can be confused only by the side edges, which turned out to be curved. As for the front camera, it is retractable here. Its resolution is 16 MP. And on the back of the device is the main camera, consisting of three modules. Different focal lengths allow you to use the zoom, albeit relatively small. Nothing bad can be said about the battery.The manufacturer did not fail both with the battery capacity and with the power of the network adapter.
